Adventurer's with an appetite...

[MugenMugetsu]

As a long time FFXI player, when I first started playing back in 2010 I was always of the mindset that using food in group content was the thing to do. I've continued doing so, and, on occasion, use food, for the buffs, even while doing solo content.

My question is, what food do you use, or do you not use food at all? ø.Øa

I use food for more challenging content like raids or extreme trials, but that's about it. Your average dungeon run and simpler content, I go without.

[Greedalox]

I only eat food for raids, and maybe eat some terrible quest reward food if I'm leveling a lower level class for the exp boost.

[CGMidlander]

Baked Pipira Pira for raiding; random cheapo NPC guff (e.g. Boiled egg) for leveling

[Silica-chan]

outside of crafting I'm not using any buff food

[Jeycht]

Best food for raid only.
Cheap thing I gather for the extra 3% exp solo.

[Canadane]

If I need exp, I'll always be eating.
During endgame raids I'll keep food on.
And sometimes, rarely, I'll chug something to cheese a high level crafting requirement.

If I'm just out doing whatever, not netting exp, then I don't particularly use any food.

[ExKage]

I keep the random cheap stuff I might get from ventures for extra 3% exp for leveling.

Depending on my crafting/gathering needs I may eat HQ food for those occasions.

When I raided, HQ only.

[AlphaFox]

I used Deep-Fried Okeanis for my DRK when I ran Seph EX. May not be the ideal food but its what I could easily make at the time and had spare ingredients when leveling. However for the most part I don't eat unless its a raid or Extreme primal where every little helps.

[Ashkendor]

Steamed staff when I raid. Baked onion soup or seafood stew when I craft. Apples when I'm leveling.
